Amazing
Olesya L on Dec 20, 2025
Amazing hotel! Concierge Jan has been incredibly welcoming and went above and beyond since day one—always greeting us with a smile, helping with every question, and making us feel completely taken care of. Cinthia and Alan from the entertainment team have also been fantastic. Overall, an unforgettable experience!
Perfect Vacation!!
Marie D on Dec 11, 2025
My husband and I just got back from a wonderful vacation! We chose this hotel because of the beautiful grounds, beach and charming Mexican buildings and we were not disappointed!! Before booking I read some reviews about the rooms being dated, and I can see why, but it was exactly what I wanted, charming and very clean. The whole resort is meticulously maintained. The pool was very clean. Beach was picture perfect. The shows were phenomenal! All the staff were super friendly and helpful! A few things I think worth mentioning; -The resort is quite big, so bring comfortable footwear. -There is lots of wildlife everywhere, which we loved, but may not be everyone’s cup of tea. -There are photographers on site, you can schedule a session for free and you just pay per picture that you want. It’s fairly pricey but the pictures were phenomenal! - When we booked our confirmation said we got $500 US resort credit, but that was actually just a bunch of $25 off coupons with a minimum purchase of $100US -the pool closes at 7pm, maybe that’s standard for resorts, but we’d have liked to swim a little later - the app was very helpful to see the dining and activity schedules We loved the resort and would certainly go back!!
